Burn victims are literally scarred for life both physically and emotionally, but a tattoo artist in Canada wants to change that.

Basma Hameed is a tattoo artist who tattoos people with permanent pigment that matches skin tones so perfectly that scars, especially those from burns, practically disappear.

When Basma was a girl she suffered an awful hot oil burn on one side of her face and after 100 surgeries, plastic surgeons told her there wasn't anything else they could do for her. Not surprisingly, Basma's first client was herself.

Now, people from all over the world are flocking to Basma for her cosmetic tattooing skills.
